Hello Michael, Matthew. Thanks for your response. So if there are any chances of contacting James to see if he could share some thoughts or recommendations, I'd like to reiterate my interest in learning how to annotate Jaxb/XSD generated classes with Spring Neo4J annotations so that they could somehow be persisted inside a Neo4J instance.
Initially, I think all the elements from an XSD schema should get annotated. Hopefully what I'm talking about makes sense. Thanks again for your time and help!
